Giving up something or someone painful for happiness.
Today; August 19th,
I grew my wings for me to fly free,
Told myself enough was enough,
And I can do bad all by myself,
I ran out the house and down the hall,
I took the chance to give it all up,
If I'm ever gonna find true love,
I need to cut you off

BRIDGE:
I've given you all,
You only gave half,
I gave you love,
You hurt me so bad
So now I know what to do,
Only one life to live and I choose....

CHORUS:
Live my life to the fullest,
Take the time to smile again;
Thank GOD I'm through with it
Pick up the pieces that had been broken
I'm on my way to better days


For once since we've been together,
I placed me first,
Something you had never done,
Not one time; Not ever,
Your happiness became my sadness,
It was too much to bare,
And now that I know better
Let me make myself clear.....

BRIDGE:
I've given you all,
You only gave half,
I gave you love,
You turned your back,
So now I know what to do,
Only one life to live and I choose....

CHORUS...........
